29th Aug - Maintenence Day

No particular plans - again. But the mail should be in by 1600... So after a morning walk, it's a good day for pre-flighting the bus... and car! All good! After that it's time for a serious shower - to get the soot and grease off, and have my every 3-4 days shave. Don't like the salt and pepper beard. Maz doesn't like beard at all, but I can't be bothered shaving everyday - since I don't have to.

Later on it's into 'town' for the mail. Today's presents are a pair of new baskets for the slideout pantry. Decided that a third shelf would fit and be useful - and they come in pairs!!! So the other basket will go on the aircon duct behind the driver, as a book shelf! Have drill... will drill!

Also received a spare anode for the water heater. The HWS has had all sorts of water through it and has been on 240VAC mostly. So when I look, I will have a replacement.

More in line with 'presents' is a pair of digital wall thermometer/hygrometer... and clock, for inside and outside the bus. 30mm high LCD numbers; and now they are batteried up they are within 0.1 degree and 1%, pretty good.

But the satellite CAM and card have not arrived, damn. Hopefully Friday's mail truck...

Anyway it's grilled chicken and homemade Ceasar Salad, and maybe ABC iView... cheers
